OPEN THREAD WEDNESDAY.

MORE DISCLAIMERSIt's open thread Wednesday, so tell me what's on your mind.

I will tell you what's on mine:

Bill O'Liely getting the boot at FOX VIEWS. (Ladies, you can come out now.) 

How this administration managed to lose an entire fleet of ships.

Did Aaron Hernandez really hang himself?

trump is deporting "dreamers" now

And if this republican lawmaker had called his colleagues "niggas" and not "niggers", would it have made a difference?

Holla at me.

As feared, the dreamers have registered their presence and their addresses only to their own detriment under a hostile administration.

We will defeat the menace. Do not become friends with the monster. Give no quarter. When anyone you know accepts Trump and his policies as normal, give them a swift kick in the behind.

Will more gop legislators bail out like Chaffetz? Nothing like having total control of the government to show how inept you are at legislating. Paul Ryan's future may be at risk too.

Sexual harassment has become an issue so fraught, it largely precludes debate. That's why advertisers dumped O'Reilly — seeming to make a moral judgment, but, practically speaking, just avoiding controversy.

Your narrative is your fate. It doesn't matter if O'Reilly or Ailes did or didn't do the things they are accused of — no trial has occurred, no evidence has been released, no investigators' conclusions shared — their real guilt is that people believe they could have.

The cultural upper hand is a mighty one.

About Hernandez I don't know...its tragic his life, the choices he made got him where he was and I think maybe it was just too much for him to bear...I've seen one suicide where myself and others still wonder if he wasn't murdered, but sadly, the evidence all pointed to suicide. He hung himself also from the rafters of his auto body repair shop. And gave on clue, no inkling whatsoever as to why. So yeah, I guess you never know what's really in someone's mind...

Remember the time that reporter from BET got caught having sex with a sheep?

Why didn't the media make a big deal about THAT?

REPORT: John Brennan Colluded With Foreign Spies to Falsify Trump-Russia Connections

In a damning report originally stemming from the Guardian, and then picked up by the American Spectator, it has been confirmed that former CIA director John Brennan colluded with British and Estonian spies who sought to both to manufacture Trump-Russia ties and bring down Trump’s candidacy as a whole.

Seeking to retain his position as CIA director under Hillary, Brennan teamed up with British spies and Estonian spies to cripple Trump’s candidacy. He used their phony intelligence as a pretext for a multi-agency investigation into Trump, which led the FBI to probe a computer server connected to Trump Tower and gave cover to Susan Rice, among other Hillary supporters, to spy on Trump and his people.

John Brennan’s CIA operated like a branch office of the Hillary campaign, leaking out mentions of this bogus investigation to the press in the hopes of inflicting maximum political damage on Trump. An official in the intelligence community tells TAS that Brennan’s retinue of political radicals didn’t even bother to hide their activism, decorating offices with “Hillary for president cups” and other campaign paraphernalia.

The Guardian says that British spy head Robert Hannigan “passed material in summer 2016 to the CIA chief, John Brennan.” To ensure that these flaky tips leaked out, Brennan disseminated them on Capitol Hill. In August and September of 2016, he gave briefings to the “Gang of Eight” about them, which then turned up on the front page of the New York Times.

[…]

Were the media not so completely in the tank for Obama and Hillary, all of this political mischief would make for a compelling 2016 version of All the President’s Men. Instead, the public gets a steady stream of Orwellian propaganda about the sudden propriety of political espionage. The headline writers at Pravda couldn’t improve on this week’s official lie, tweeted out by the Maggie Habermans: “Susan Rice Did Nothing Wrong, Say Both Dem and Republican House Aides.”

I'm not particularly comfortable with either of those words, but I know that doesn't really matter.
With free speech comes responsibility, and while it may be your right to say certain things, there might just be consequences to saying them, and the ability to deal with those consequences comes with the age of majority in the eyes of the law.
I once had a house mate from Texas who was an alcoholic and was quite fond of using those words in jest, even though we repeatedly tried to convince him it wasn't such a good idea. I think it was the third time he woke up with staples in his head that finally got through to him.

Bill O'Reilly getting fired reminded me of the time I applied for a job at Fox News. The first question on the application was, "Have you had sex with Bill O'Reilly?" The second question was, "Would you like to?"

Trump doesn't have to want WW3 in order to give it to us. He can arrange for it to happen just by being his incompetent self.

Brigade Fifteen said...

I'm not really crying for Bill O'Reilly, or Aaron Hernandez, or (should he, hopefully, be forced to resign) that racist state legislator in Florida. They are all horrible people.

I do feel bad for the "dreamers" who are now, evidently, on the deportation list. The dude in the news who recently got deported was 9 when he came to the US, but some of these people were infants when they came here, so they have no recollection of ever living in another country. There is a negligible difference between their situation and being a citizen who was born here -- except for the paperwork.

Remember that movie "Born in East L.A.," in which Cheech Marin gets deported, despite trying to explain to everyone that he's an American? We're basically doing that now, only without the comedic parts.

"I do feel bad for the "dreamers" who are now, evidently, on the deportation list."

You shouldn't. These are positive stories of families that are being reunited in Mexico.

Also, this is going to open up a lot of jobs for young black people, who desperately need them.

Brigade Fifteen said...

"You shouldn't. These are positive stories of families that are being reunited in Mexico."

LOL, "reunited." Many of these young people have no close family in these countries, don't speak the language or know much about the culture, have no way to support themselves, and are being separated from everyone they actually DO care about.

You can take your "win" and shove it. There is no "win" here for the people in this story who are ending up on the Mexican side of the border. Trump isn't doing them a fucking favor. It's misery for them, pure and simple.

Jeffro Bodine Sessions ejaculated today- From Attorney General Jeff Sessions, still unhappy that President Trump's immigration order has been stayed by the courts:

I really am amazed that a judge sitting on an island in the Pacific can issue an order that stops the President of the United States from what appears to be clearly his statutory and Constitutional power.

An "island in the Pacific"? Seriously? That island is Hawaii. It's a state. It has federal judges, just like all the other states. That includes judges in Washington, Virginia, New York, and California, who stayed Trump's original order, and judges in Wisconsin and Maryland, who stayed Trump's revised order in whole or part. Nor is it "amazing" that a judge can stay an executive order. That's what judges do if circumstances warrant. That's how our country works. The attorney general should respect this, even when he disagrees with a court's decision.

We can't find Navy battle groups, we can't find Hawaii. I hope the tween shall never need each other. They'd both end up in Cleveland.

Brigade Fifteen said...

"I really am amazed that a judge sitting on an island in the Pacific can issue an order that stops the President of the United States from what appears to be clearly his statutory and Constitutional power."

Sessions (and probably Trump) is amazed that the whole separation of powers and democracy thing keeps getting in the way of their dreams of dictatorship. Soooooo annoying!

But not to worry. The Republican Party is always coming up with new ways to remedy that.

Many rally against our laws while waving Mexican flags and burning American flags. They say Trump is not their President.

They are right, Enrique Pena Nieto is their President. We are doing them a favor by reuniting them with the culture they prefer.

In return we get to live like Americans in America, without having to accommodate ungracious guests.

Where was this sit around the campfire singing Kumbayahspirit when Janet Reno and the US government returned Elian Gonzalez to his dad so he could be raised at home in Cuba? I remember riots and death threats and how unAmerican it was not to tear a family apart if the person involved is of a group of immigrants that habitually vote for wingnuts.

So Roy Moore has bitten the big one and is too old to be re-appointed to the bench. Any bets on whether he becomes a senator or governor next?

Moore was tossed off the court twice. I should hope it doesn't have to be three times because he is unable to abide by the constitution he swears to uphold. SOB should rot in jail next to a cell full of his favorite colored people-white racists.

Talk about timing- “I started poking around to see what I might be worth and what sort of possibilities are there,” Chaffetz said in a phone interview with POLITICO Thursday afternoon. “And I got a series of ‘Let us know when you’re serious.’ Well now I can say, ‘Can you tell I am serious?’… I’ll take a little bit of time to sort out. I’d be thrilled to have a television relationship. But there’s a number of things I’d like to do.”

O'Drizzly is out. Could his slot be tailor made for another extreme right wing nutter who has plenty of lies to tell about HRC and Obama?

Drumpf had a child molester(self proclaimed) a Wasilla Windigo and another musician of some type from Detroit at the WH and got them stand in front of HRCs portrait and flip her off. Such class as we've never known or seen before. Paul Begala called it Mount Rushmore of white racism or something similar.

Wingnuts have zero respect for the office of the bogus potus and never have.

Looks like the old "white boys" network comes to the rescue of Bill O'Reilly….he gets to walk away with the cash and probably already has a book deal and another job offer. While Bill Cosby gets tarred and feathered and buried. There is definitely a double standard.

Hey black men….Wake up! And you think that the sistah's are your enemy.
